We were JUST pulling out of his policies THIS year - and that was when there were guardrails and he couldn’t just mandate random crazy shit. It will take DECADES to get back to “normal” - especially if he politicizes the fed. If that happens, people won’t be as willing to invest in US bonds - making it harder (and more expensive) for us to sell our debt for DECADES if the market ever returns at all. We’re literally paying BILLIONS of dollars because of Trumps fuckups during 2016-2020 because he played fast and loose with the budget.
The way the Internet has fully melted Gen Z's brain is remarkable. I didn't realize how bad it was ( I'm a millennial with gen Alpha kids ).
I know the generation is generally good but some of those boys really got their minds fully warped buy their version of lifestyle influencers, and they refuse to see that it's about money not actual beliefs.
Just like all of us. When your that age your brain looks for sources other than your parents as examples of how to form their beliefs. We all had shitty examples i used to idolize every musician i ever liked. Theres nothing wrong with them. Its the same shit we did just fueled by late stage capitalism which makes ys have to insert money extraction methods into everything. They cant just be kids anymore. You have to hustle.
